Tasted Wednesday, June 27, 2018 by TashNYC with 120 views
32 New World Wines plus food / tapas at Enoterra for $25 / person. We managed to taste all the wines.
This was #32 (last) in the tasting but we decided to have the only sparkler first, instead. It was first paired with beef skewer (hmmm) but was best with the empanadas (which were excellent).
NV Bodega Norton 101 Bubbles 91 Points

Fine and elegant bubbles with notes of pear, green pepper and lovely acidity. This was excellent with the empanadas. Could work with spicy or Asian food, too. I looked up the wine the next day. It is 100% Gruner Veltliner, low alcohol (11.7%). It was #32 (last) on the tasting list (who puts a sparkler last in a tasting?) but we had it first. We paid $14.40 locally although I see it online for as little as $13.50. Great QPR at either price and a good summer sparkler. Drink now.
